Coins & Collectibles

The dark and narrow appearance of Coins & Collectibles may have a hint of 'spooky' about it, but could get you some cash for coins.

Stunning marble lions watch over the counter. Red Venetian glass and a smattering of other antiques are also available.

Aussie Antiques

If you love to sift through cluttered jumble, Aussie Antiques is the shop for you. Exciting finds are piled up in this historical house, including figurines, chairs, vases, ceramics, lamps, radios, dolls' prams, a grandfather clock, tall-boys, trumpets and bulls' horns. Modern paintings are also in stacks and on walls. A marigold carnival glass bowl was a bargain buy. A Medieval leather cup was an interesting item. Worth checking for that unusual something at a reasonable price.
